Baltimore Hebrew University (BHU) is one of the five original colleges of Jewish studies established throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries in the major Jewish settlements of Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, and New York City. The colleges were founded to teach the scientific study of Judaism, bible, Hebrew language, rabbinics and Jewish history and literature to teachers and lay leaders. BHU, originally called Baltimore Hebrew College and Teachers Training School, opened it doors in 1919. Today, nearly nine decades later, BHU stands apart as a leader in the world of Jewish education, graduating more than 20% of the nation’s MA in Jewish Education students studying in a trans-denominational setting. BHU also graduates 15% of the nation's MA in Jewish Communal Service students. These students go on to impact communities across the United States through careers in Jewish family services, federations, community centers, camps, Hillel foundations, and synagogues, or participating on lay boards of local Jewish institutions. BHU’s MA and PhD in Jewish Studies prepare students for academic careers through immersion in Jewish classics as well as comprehension of the scope of the Jewish experience. This experience is carried over into BHU's Lifelong Learning Department, which provides Me'ah (100 hours of learning) classes, ulpan, plays, film screenings, endowed lectures, and numerous other learning vehicles for the discerning adult whose interest in Jewish studies and activities is endless.
